After winning an Oscar for his effort in The Revenant, Leo used his acceptance speech to talk about climate change. Now he’s in the jungle making friends with monkeys. Fair play… at least he’s consistent.
The actor visited Indonesia’s famous Sumatran Orangutang Conservation Programme’s Orangutang Quarantine Centre this week to put his money where his mouth is about wildlife preservation and environmental conservation.
Leo spent the rest of his trip meeting scientists and locals at the centre, posing for photos and taking edgy, distant shots of rhinos wandering through the wilderness. God dammit give that man another Oscar!

Leo is campaigning against the Palm Oil industry’s impact on the ecosystem in Indonesia.

As well as meeting orangutangs, he also chilled with some elephants.
